Many accidents caused by hot
crimping-irou have been reported
but none has been more strange and
serious that that which occurred to
Mrs. Pool , of Plainfleld , N. J. , a few
day ago. Mrs. Pool was curling her
hair , when the hot iron slipped and
struck the center of her left eye. Cold
water was at once applied , and con
siderable relief was had for a time.
Later , however , the eye pained eo
badly that Mrs. Pool fainted. The next
day the right eye was affected and the
attending oculist now says that it is
likely the sight of both will be lost.
Says the Portland ( Me. ) Express :
"Tho sight of a young man going to

projecting from his mouth is one of
end-of-the century incidents that teach
people that the youth of today is
somewhat different from the one of
'ye olden times. ' One would think
so ; but it is unfair to the youth of to
day to take the urchin mentioned as
a sample. There were boys who were
no honor to their friends even in the
good old times. "

LENGTH OF A THOUGHT.
Ruryrlslns itwultH of KxiierlmcntH Madr
by a Noted ISrltUh Sctuntist.
*
How long does it take a man to
think ? Professor Richet , at the recent
meeting of the British association ,
gave the results of his investigations
into this subject. He found that by
mentally running up the notes of the
musical scale for one or more octaves
and then dividing the total time by
the number of notes thought of , the
time taken for each note was one-
eleventh of a second. There are va
rious ways of arriving at conclusions
as to the amount of time necessary for
realizing any physical sensation or
mental impression. If the skin be
touched repeatedly with light blows
from a small hammer a person may ,
according to Professor Richet , distin
guish the fact that the blows are sep
arate and not continuous pressure
when they follow one another as fre
quently as 1,000 a second. The small
est intervals of sound can be much
better distinguished with one ear than
with both. Thus the separateness of
the clicks of a revolving toothed wheel
was noted by one observer when they
did not exceed sixty to the second , but
using both ears he could not distin
guish them when they occurred oftener -
er than fifteen times a second.
The sharp sound of the electric
spark of an induction coil was distin
guished with one ear when the rate
was as high as 500 to the second. Sight
is much less keen than hearing in dis
tinguishing differences. If a disc half
white and half black be revolved , it
will appear gray when its revolutions
excaed twenty-four per second. It has
been found that we can hear far more
rapidly than we can count , so that if
a clock-clicking movement runs faster
than ten to the second we can couni
four clicks , while with twenty to the
second we can only count two of them.
The lilrils' Balance of Tower.
In a recent lecture Prof. Wilmer
Stone of Philadelphia cited many facts
to show that birds are nature's great
check on the excess of insects , and
that they keep the balance between
plants and insect life. Ten thousand
caterpillars , it has been estimated ,
could destroy every blade of grass on
an acre of cultivated ground. In thir
ty days from the time it is hatched an
ordinary caterpillar increases 10,000
times in bulk , and the food it lives and
grows on is vegetable. The insect
population of a single cherry tree in
fested with aphides was calculated by
a prominent entomologist at no less
than 12,000,000 ! The bird population
of cultivated districts has been esti
mated at from 700 to 1,000 per square
mile. This is small compared with
the number of insects , yet as each bird
consumes hundreds of insects every
day the latter are prevented from be
coming the scourge they would he but
for their feathered enemies.
Use for Old Gold.
One of the most sensible "fads"
among the girls just now is to save up
all their old jewelry , old gold thimbles
which have the tops worn off , gold fob
chains , gold bracelets , and pins , and
even necklaces , and take them to some
reliable jeweler , who will either molt
them down and make what she wants
out of them , or else will exchange
them , allowing her for the weight of
the gold. One girl made a collection
for several years of boken bits of jew
elry and , with some of her grandmoth
er's added to them , sold them to her
own jeweler and now is the happy
possessor of a beautiful pearl necklace
which she got in exchange. Harper's

yearning for the good old times and
mourning the degeneracy of modern
days and customs. The Wesleyan
ministers of the early part of this
century , she said , rose early , and dear
Mr. Wesley was in his study at 1

M. Mounet-Sully , the famous trage

self a splendid house near Bcrgero.
The construction is to be of commin

veritable palace. The country around
is smiling and reposeful. The actor in
tends to dwell in the palace perma
nently when he retires from the stage.
He is a native of the Pcrigord district ,
and wants to end his days near the
spot where he was born , and far from
the lumulr of Paris.
Paris has , apart from two places
where paupers can spend the night ,
fourteen asylumns for the homeless ,
which last year lodged 144,037 persons ,
of whom 15,557 were women and 2,000

professors and teachers , 18 sutdents , 5
authors , 5 journalists , 120 actors and
singers , 30 musicians and 10 music
teachers.

The Baltimore and Ohio South West
ern Railway has been experimenting
witli electric motors on turn-tables.
Turning locomotives at divisional
points and terminals is a service of
much annoyance and no little expense
to railroad companies. It generally
takes four men to turn a locomotive ,
and while they are doing so their reg
ular work is abandoned.
Experiments were made with an
electric motor on the 00-foot turn
table at Chillicothe with such success
that the Park Street turn-table in
Cincinnati was similarly equipped. The
result has been rather astonishing in
the matter of expense. The current
was purchased from the power plant ,
and it cost on an average of less than
one-half a cent for each time the table
was turned. When this same table was
operated by hand it cost 12 cents for
each engine. The yearly saving is
about ? 709.
A parcel containing flowers , with
out sufficient postage attached , was

postofilce the other day. Law and cus

for a funeral and took up a collection
among themselves so that the parcel
was sent on its way without delay.
There was no clew as to the identy
of the person who mailed it , and it
was a clear case of casting their bread
upon the waters by the postal clerks ,
even if it did cost them but a few
cents at the most.

f&zSiJ Gentlemen : I write to let you know that your medicine has in my |
[ trade mar-t. ] case proven all you claim for it. and more , for it did for me what no other H
medicine had done before , i could not move without help , and the doctors made fun of me |
for sending to you for medicine. They said I was past medicine help , but I have been for three H
months enjoying as good health as ever I did in mv life. Enclosed herewith And one dollar for j H
which please send me another bottle cf " 5 DHOPfa , * for I know of lots or people that suffer | H
with Rheumatism , and I wihh to try this on the worst of them , and perhaps they will believe H
me. Fuank Copelan-d , Xecedah , Wis. Oct. 12 , 183 ? . H
